take care of和look after的区别:
1、Look after有照顾照看的意思。但是它的意思比take care of较窄。意思就是在后边跟着，眼睛看着来照看，孩子不要受伤，不要干扰别人等等。
2、take care of的意思就很广。这个词的意思不仅仅是跟在后边看，而且是更加细致地照顾。 Take care of不仅仅是照顾，在工作和生活中，也有“把事情搞掂、处理好”的意思。
例句： The nurses took good care of the children.＝The nurses looked after the children well.
保育员把孩子照料得很好.

look after，take care of和care about的区别为：指代不同、用法不同、侧重点不同。
一、指代不同
1、look after：照料。
2、take care of：照看。
3、care about：在意。
二、用法不同
1、look after：用作名词时意思是“照顾”“护理”，也可指“小心”“注意”，还可指“忧虑”“挂念”，均用作不可数名词。可作“烦人的事”解，为可数名词，多用其复数形式。
2、take care of：care作“在乎，介意，关心”解时还可用作不及物动词，后面常跟介词about或for引导的短语。care只有在答句中、含有情态动词时、if从句中或定语从句中才可用于肯定句。
3、care about：care用作及物动词作“在乎”“介意”“关心”解时，后面常跟that/wh-或if/whether引导的从句，作“愿意”解时，后面常跟动词不定式，一般多用于疑问句、否定句或条件句中，也可用于含有怀疑或不确定意味的半否定句中，但不用于意思十分确切的肯定句中。
三、侧重点不同
1、look after：是行为上比较具体的照顾。
2、take care of：是比较广义的照顾。
3、care about：表示操心、关心之类。
take care of作“照顾、照料”解,相当于look after.如：
① I believe that neighbors can take care of your son while you are out.
相信我外出期间我的邻居们会照顾我的儿子的.
② The boy is very young.He can’t take care of himself.这男孩很小,不可以照顾自己.
take care of作“保管、保护”解.如：
① The teacher told the students to take care of the new books.
老师告知学生要保护好新书.
② Can you take care of your thing?你会保管你的物品吗?
★take care of与look after都能作“照顾、照料”解,可以互相替换.但look after没有“保管、保护”的意思.如：
① She stayed at home and took care of her mother yesterday.
＝She stayed at home and looked after her mother yesterday.
昨天她呆在家里照料她母亲了.
② Who is going go take care of the wounded person in the hospital?
＝Who is going to look after the wounded person in the hospital?
谁去医院照料那个受伤的人?
③ Children must take good care of their eyes.
≠Children must look after their eyes well.
孩子们要好好保护眼睛.
★take good care of和look after…well意义相同,都是“好好照料、好好照顾”的意思.
但要注意,take care of用的是good一词,而look after则用well.如：
① Don’t worry.I can take good care of your pet while you are away.
＝Don’t worry.I can look after your pet well while you are away.
放心,你不在时,我会照料好你的宠物的.
② The nurses took good care of the children.
＝The nurses looked after the children well.
保育员把孩子照料得很好.
都可翻译成照顾.look after就是行为上比较具体的照顾,比如说The mother is looking after her sicky son.就不能翻译成 is taking care of……因为take care of是比较广义的照顾,一般都用来嘱咐说,照顾好自己或是自己的东西,比如Take good care of your handbag!而care about则更多的表示操心、关心之类的意思.且在这里care是动词,再take care of里,care 是名词.
